Modern Hotel

Located in Georgetown on Penang Island, this hotel is one of the dozens of choices available in the city. Contrary to what the name might suggest, it's not particularly up-to-date with regard to technology (ceiling fan, bathroom without, with just a shower and sink in your room). The price is reasonable, however: 35RM per night for a double room, the room is clean and the staff are friendly. Among the many alternatives offered in the city, if you prefer quiet places without too many Westerners, this is the ideal solution for you.
